In January 2017, Gina Rodriguez exuded confidence and poise as she graced the second annual Moet Moment Film Festival at the Doheny Room in West Hollywood.

Embodying her personal mantra—instilled by her father every morning: “Today is going to be a great day; I can, and I will”—Gina radiated elegance in a chic Jill Stuart ensemble that showcased her slim figure and turned heads on the red carpet.

The then-32-year-old actress showed off a little bit of skin as she turned up in a thigh-grazing mini skirt and a cutout top, both from Jill Stuart’s Fall 2016 collection.

The flattering ribbed top featured a high neck, ruffled shoulders, and sleeves, while the skirt had large buttons that kept things in place.

Gina allowed her figure to do the talking, accessorizing with just a couple of silver rings. She teamed the outfit with a pair of black pumps and kept everything else pretty simple.

The ‘Jane the Virgin’ actress wore her hair straight with a side part and kept her makeup feminine with pink blush and lipstick.
